Wow... great composition, exposure and sharpness. The dark background lends a superb touch with the entire focus being in the loco.

Thanks Shashank. Surprisingly it came well with hand-held shooting.

Lovely! Am so glad they've preserved an MAWD. I wonder if this is the same one that was standing at New Guwahati yard for the longest time? Tks for sharing.

It is a very nice picture and a lot of effort has gone into restoration and plinthing of this locomotive. Unfortunately, in the end, it does not look anything like a MAWD locomotive. All they needed was to look at a few pictures of these locomotives when in service. IRFCA Gallery to start with…

This is the same one earlier used to be in NGC shed. This was in fact used for Brahmaputra by Steam run from GHY to Pandu ghat. I just wonder why they have plinthed this loco which is still in working condition. It could be used for special runs.
